SITE INDEX of SIAMESE ROSEWOOD (Dalbergia Cochinchinensis Pierre) in PLANTATIONS of THAILAND SITE INDEX OF SIAMESE ROSEWOOD (Dalbergia cochinchinensis Pierre) IN PLANTATIONS OF THAILAND TAENGMOO PHUNCHAISRI1, CHONGRAK WACHRINRAT1*, PONTHEP MEUNPONG1, SUWAN TANGMITCHAROEN2 AND NAWAPHONG KUASAKUN1 1 Department of Silviculture Faculty of Forestry Kasetsart University, Bangkok 10900, Thailand 2 Forest Research and Development Bureau, Royal Forest Department, Bangkok 10900, Thailand *Corresponding author, e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Currently, decreased productivity of Siamese rosewood (Dalbergia cochinchinensis Pierre) is a problem due to illegal logging and the guidelines to manage this prevention being may be insufficient. Forest plantations should be promoted to achieve sustainable wood production for this species. Site index (SI) is a measure that can be used to predict forest productivity to identify appropriate sites for planting Siamese rosewood. The objective of the current study was to predict the SI for Siamese rosewood in Thailand. A sample of 78 temporary plots at 26 sites in 16 provinces of Thailand was selected to construct a site index curve with a base age of 30 yr. The results showed that the mean age of Siamese rosewood was 28 yr (between 13 and 55 yr), the mean diameter at breast height (DBH) was 20.03 cm (between 7.99 and 33.80 cm), and the mean dominant height was 20.79 m (between 7.32 and 24.82 m). The -1 -1 2 SI equation was: SI = e(lnHdo-12.476(A -Ab )) with an R value of 0.406 at p < 0.0001 (chosen as 30 yr in the present study). The equation indicated that 14, 18, 22, 26, and 30 m trees belonged to site classes Ι, ΙΙ, ΙΙΙ, ΙV, and V, respectively. Although in natural forest, Siamese rosewood is distributed in dry evergreen and mixed deciduous forests, in the present study, several sites in areas under both in situ and ex situ conservation were in the good and very good site categories. Thus, both areas can be used to plant Siamese rosewood and increase its productivity. Keywords: Siamese rosewood, Site index, Temporary plot INTRODUCTION Siamese rosewood (Dalbergia cochinchinensis Pierre) is generally found in the dry evergreen and mixed deciduous forests (Veesommai & Kavduengtain 2004) at elevations between 100 and 775 m above sea level (Eiadthong & Tangmitcharoen 2015). This species is native to Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam. Over the years, this species has been severely affected by illegal logging, due to the quality of its hardwood and high durability, leading to a gradual reduction in its numbers (Cadena 2014). It was under the “vulnerable” category and red listed as a threatened species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) (IUCN, 2008), leading to a high demand of its wood and high price (Forest Research and Development Bureau 2010). This has been the prime reason affecting the numbers of Siamese rosewood trees. According to a survey by the Royal Forest Department of Thailand (2015), the price of Siamese rosewood heartwood was USD 30,000/m3 on the black market. Such a high price provided sufficient motivation for illegal logging in both natural forest and plantations. In 2014, 1,823 m3of Siamese rosewood was seized by the Thai government. The lawsuits filed for illegal logging of Siamese rosewood have increased while productivity has decreased every year in Thailand (Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation 2015). A similar situation exists for other threatened species with similar hardwood characteristics, such as Dalbergia oliveri Gamble ex Prain and Pterocarpus macrocarpus Kurz (Internal Security Operations Command 2014). The diminishing number of individual trees of such species is of grave concern and needs to be dealt with urgently. Plantations can play an important role in the success of reviving these species. Several economically viable species, including Siamese rosewood, have been promoted in certain areas by the Thai government. Two distinct procedures have been applied: 1), in situ conservation areas (conservation of ecosystems and natural habitats and maintenance and recovery of the population that allows the species to exist in the natural environment and in the case of domesticated or cultivated plant species in an environment in which those species have developed special properties); and 2) ex situ conservation (conservation of plant genetic resources outside the natural habitat). The current methods being used for selecting areas where this planting Siamese rosewood need to be improved and implemented in the future. (Tangmitcharoen 2013) Site index (SI) is one of the measures used to predict forest productivity, wood volume, and the potential rate of growth (Hanson et al. 2002). The relationship between dominant height and age was used to construct a site index curve by Mayhew & Newton (1998). There are several techniques for determining SI such as: (1) the proportion curve or guide curve method; (2) the parameter prediction method; and (3) the different equation method (Clutter et al. 1983). In Thailand, the proportion curve method has been used for assessing and predicting the site quality of Tectona grandis L.f. (Forestry Research Center 1669) and Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehnh. plantations in the lower northeastern parts (Insaun 2009) and Acacia mangium Willd. plantation in Trat province(Jumwong 2006). Siamese rosewood research has also focused on other dimensions such as inventory, ecology, growth and yield. The prediction of SI for Siamese rosewood is yet to be undertaken. Thus, the objective of the current research was to summarize the growth characteristics and develop a SI for Siamese rosewood found in plantations in Thailand. MATERIALS AND METHODS Study site and data collection Thailand is a tropical country located between 50 37" N and 20027" N latitude and 97o 22" E and 105o 37" E longitude. The annual rainfall ranges between 1,200 and 1600 mm and the mean annual rainfall is 1,587 mm. The mean annual temperature is around 270 C (Thai Meteorological Department 2014). The study was conducted in Siamese rosewood plantations owned by the Royal Forest Department of Thailand (RFD) and the Forest Industry Organization (FIO).

Box 303, 3720 AH Bilthoven, Netherlands. Accepted 18 May, 2009 Climate change is a global threat to biodiversity because it has the potential to cause significant impacts on the distribution of species and the composition of habitats. The objective of this research is to evaluate the consequence of climate change in distribution of forest tree species, both deciduous and evergreen species. We extracted the HadCM3 A2 climate change scenario (regionally-oriented economic development) for the year 2050 in northern Thailand. A machine learning algorithm based on maximum entropy theory (MAXENT) was employed to generate ecological niche models of forest plants. Six evergreen species and 16 deciduous species were selected using the criteria developed by the Asia Pacific Forest Genetic Resources Programme (APFORGEN) for genetic resources conservation and management. Species occurrences were obtained from the Department of National Park, Wildlife and Plant Conservation. The accuracy of each ecological niche model was assessed using the area under curve of a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The results show that the total extent of occurrence of all selected plant species is not substantially different between current and predicted climate change conditions. However, their spatial configuration and turnover rate are high, especially evergreen tree species.

In this study, the leaves of Afzelia xylocarpa (Kurz) Craib. were investigated for biological activity, and their active substances were determined. Extracts of A. xylocarpa leaf exhibited concentration-dependent phytotoxic activity against the seedling length of Lepidium sativum L., Medicago sativa L., Phleum pratense L., and Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) P. Beauv. Bioassay-guided fractionation of the A. xylocarpa leaf extracts led to isolating and identifying two compounds: vanillic acid and trans-ferulic acid. Both compounds were applied to four model plants using different concentrations. The results showed both compounds significantly inhibited the model plants’ seedling length in a species-dependent manner (p < 0.05). The phytotoxic effects of trans Citation: Krumsri, R.; Ozaki, K.; -ferulic acid (IC50 = 0.42 to 2.43 mM) on the model plants were much greater than that of vanillic Teruya, T.; Kato-Noguchi, H.

Binh Chau - Phuoc Buu Nature Reserve is located in the tropical rainforest zone of southeast Vietnam. The obtained results from the study undertaken on the composition of plant species and forest vegetation in Binh Chau - Phuoc Buu Nature Reserve indicated a record of 743 species, 423 genera and 122 families that belongs to the three divisions of vascular plants. These includes: Polypodiophyta, Pinophyta and Magnoliophyta. Useful plants of 743 taxonomy species listed consists of 328 species of medicinal plants, 205 species of timber plants, 168 species of edible plants, 159 species of ornamental plants, 56 species of industrial plants, 10 species of fiber plants and 29 species of unknown use plants, respectively. During the duration of investigation, Nervilia aragoana Gaudich. was newly recorded in the forest vegetation of Binh Chau - Phuoc Buu Reserve. A variety of forest vegetations in the area under study is described. In this study, two major vegetation types of forest were identified in Binh Chau - Phuoc Buu Reserve.
